  • Notes 
    • Mary Helen Haines notes:

      The section below, even with the blanks, must be referring to this Mary McNutt, married to William McFarland and not to Margaret, married to Robert McFarland, as so many have interpreted it. Mary was born in 1793, so being the first white child born here makes sense, while the idea that Margaret (b. 1759) married to Robert does not.

      However, even then, this does not make sense because there were many people living in this area before 1793.

      Ramsey's Annals of Tennessee to the End of the Eighteenth Century (1853)
      p. 369
      SETTLEMENTS SOUTH OF FRENCH BROAD.
      the minds of some of the earliest and most steadfast friends of Franklin by the assurances of the Governor and Legislature of North-Carolina, that, at the proper time, a new state should be formed, and their cherished wishes for independence should be gratified, if the malcontents would return to their allegiance. The argument was forcible-to many perfectly satisfactory and irresistible. It inflicted a vital stab upon the new government, which, within the next year, caused its dissolution.
      PROGRESS OF THE SETTLEMENTS SOUTH OF FRENCH BROAD.
      The Irish Bottom began to be settled. George McNutt was one of the earliest emigrants. His daughter, _____, afterwards the wife of Col. _____ McFarland, and still living in Jefferson county, was the first white child born south of French Broad. Nancy Rogers, daughter of Jonah Rogers, was the second.
